I would use oil paints. I like the smell and I like the way they record the process, the way you hold the brush etc.

I am not delicate and luminous like watercolours. I am not bold and solid like acrylic. Gouache puzzles me.

I think the pigments would be local pigments that I have perversely dug up and ground up myself even though they are not half as good as the ones you buy.

I like that question a lot, so I will repeat it. If you were a painting, what paints would you use?

Phosphorescent photochromics.

If you have the opportunity to have your ashes scattered by rocket, where would you like to detonate?

I so want to say "the launch pad" but that would be a bad thing.
I think I would like to detonate approaching the Sun. Hopefully, there is more than just me on the this rocket because it is costly to blast rockets to the Sun.
So if there were other people that were agreeable with it, the launch pad could be fun for everyone, if it was not an accident and not sabotage. Let's not surprise anyone.
OOOO! Maybe into Mar A Lago when it is closed for toilet repair. We don't want anyone, human or Oompa Loompa, to get hurt.

If you were a fictional piece of writing, aka a novel or novella, what genre would you want to be?

I would want to be a light novella, something funny.

I always wanted to try tempera.

I think I had a similar high school experience of gouache. Gouache was de rigeur. All aspiring artists used gouache. I could not get into it.

I used to enjoy archery.
I was a natural and lived on an archery park, where I worked the pro shop.
I was a grand master bowman for a while.

Fireworking was fun to learn and is a dying art.

Edit.
Oops forgot the question.

Same one

Taking a dump

Same question

First ___^^^^___ LOL!

Pencil drawing. The shading process is very meditative relaxing.
Painting
- in oils ... ah ... the smell ... the blending process ... when it's good, it's very, very enjoyable.
- watercolor ... nerve wracking because watercolor because someone with my "skills" has to give up some control to the medium. I'm no Andrew or Jamie Wyeth.

I would not say drawing and painting came naturally to me, but I have been drawn to making images since I was a little kid. I suppose, who hasn't? It took a long time to get to someplace skill wise. This was especially true drawing from nature or life because I tend to focus on the details, or in the metaphorical description, I tend to focus on the leaves, rather than the trees, rather than the forest. However, that was something that I learned to do.

I think I will pick up the brush again and resume painting and drawing before I die, although I know it will not be the same.

I will pass the same question on...

i haven't mastered the brushes part but i like to paint with knifes,

cooking, gardening, mowing speciality (by neccessity);

though its not good to go that large - think about the hips-

same question
